 Okay, let's go through the women's draw for Indian Wells. It's just come out It's a pretty interesting looking drawer and there's some really nightmare matches for some of the big names in the first couple rounds But let's start with the players that are not playing in this event who have withdrawn Okay, so here is the withdrawal list for the ladies. You can see their Krijakava. She's pulled out Bencich also pulled out She won't be playing for the rest of the year So don't expect to see her name in the draw for about 12 months Mukava wrist injury had surgery She's out for a while Kovitava same as Bencich won't be playing for a while Sevastova also pulling out due to getting a possible knee problem last week We also have an Isimova pulling out of the draw, which is really a shame. She was playing so well in Australia So she's not playing. Okay, so 32 seeds in this one Of course being a 1000 event of this size all the seeds get a buy in the first round Starting with Shviyantek the number one seed she gets by in the first round She'd take on either a qualifier or Danielle Collins in the second round Of course Collins did push Shviyantek at the Australian open to the brink so very tough start for Shviyantek Then you've got Georgie taken on Bolton of course Bolton just won a title very very good form winner That will pay the number 26 seed Noskova in the second round of course Noskova Shviyantek That was in Australia and that was an upset then you've got number 18 seed keys She'll take on either a qualifier in the second round because there's got two qualities going at it in that first round Then you got Corpash taken on putting seven winner of that will take on the number 15 seed Alexandrova in the second round so this section is interesting It's an interesting little section with you know obviously Shviyantek being the big one But it's a lot of dangerous players in here You've got you know Shviyantek Noskova as the big two keys coming back for the first time this year She's also going to be one to watch of course, but then the dangerous unseeded player You've got Colin you've got Bolter who's in very good form at the moment So very interesting section to see how Shviyantek can get out of it next section of the draw You've got Oster Penko the number 10 seed She'll take on either Kerber or Martij in the second round Then you've got a qualifier taken on Venus Williams winner of that would take on the number 17 seed Kudamatova in the second round then you got the 25th seed Vekic She'll take on either Wozniakki or Zoo in the second round then you've got Andrava taken on Vali net winner of that would take on the number six seed On Shibur in the second round and of course we have seen Shibur taking on Andrava this year already and it was an absolute beatdown by Andrava in Australia So that sucks for Shibur, but plays to watch out for obviously Oster Penko Very very dangerous has had a very good season or so far as well Shibur if she needs okay, definitely want to watch and one to keep an eye on Andrava one of the most dangerous unseeded players in the draw Of course this section will take on the Shviyantek section in the quarter finals So we potentially could be getting a Shviyantek taking on Shibur if we're gonna go by the big names But if we want to go with the names that maybe everybody expects and maybe everybody wants Shviyantek versus Oster Penko That is the one that I want to see personally Because I reckon that on this slower court Shviyantek might like her chances a little better All right next part of the draw now We've got Rabakina number four seed she'll take on either Bedosa or Kruger in the second round Then you've got Tormo taking on Buskova winner that will take on the number 28 seed Potapova in the second round So Potapova is playing then you've got Callan Skyar the 21st seed She'll take on either a qualifier or the net in the second round And then you've got Maria taking on Bruce winner that will take on the number 13 seed Palini in the second round of course Palini just beat Callan Skyar in that Dubai final a couple weeks ago So that's gonna be really interesting to see if they get a rematch there But of course plays to watch Rabakina defending champion definitely gonna keep an eye on her Palini Just won in Dubai Callan Skyar of course just played the final of Dubai So go to watch out for them as well Then you've got the number 12 seed Hadajmaia she will take on the winner of either a qualifier or Wong in the second round Then you got Kessler taking on a qualifier winner that would take on the number 22 seed Pavlia Cenkova in the second round then you got the number 31 seed Kostruc She'll play either a qualifier or Zong in the second round Then you got a qualifier taken on Savile winner of that will take on the number 7 seed Vondrusava in the second round This is a weird section because there's no real standouts. I mean this players playing well Kostruc's been good Vondy She was okay a couple weeks ago Pavlia Cenkova's been pretty good at times Hadajmaia's had a moments There's not too many unseated players there that are super dangerous So this might be the most open section of the draw and of course this section will take on Rabakina section in the Quarters so we could be getting Rabakina taken on Vondrusava if we go by the big names the two past Wimbledon champions to play that would be really fun If you want to go by a little bit more form maybe Rabakina versus Kostruc after what Kostruc did last week in San Diego Or maybe even if you want to go something a little more different Rabakina taken on Hadajmaia could be something that happens there If you want to go with something different, maybe Rabakina not there Maybe you put Pelini taken on Hadajmaia or Pelini taken on Vondrusava I mean the possibilities are endless Rabakina really the only player that I would trust in this section of course this section in the semis will take on Shriontek section So of course Shriontek take Rabakina. We'd love to see that it was a semi-final last year And we could get a rematch we could get Shriontek taken on Vondrusava Things go right for Vondy this week or maybe even Shriontek Kallenskaya Which was a rematch of what we saw in Dubai last week. So there it is top half of the draw Let's go to the bottom half of the draw bottom half of the draw you can see there We've got Jung the number eight seed we'll get by in the first round She'll take on the winner of Gracheva and Yuan in the second round Then you got Buxa taken on Dolohide winner that will take on the number 27 seed Azarenka in the second round then you got the number 19 seed Kasteya She would take on either Stevens or Sharif in the second round Then you got Havanessi and taken on Dodden winner that will take on the number 11 seed Kazakina in the second round and look this is a very interesting section You know players that are playing well this year Azarenka's been good Jung's obviously been good Kasteya's had a moments Kazakina's been good as well. I mean this is a very competitive section All right next section of the draw you've got Samson over the number 14 seed She'll take on either Osaka or a qualifier in the second round So Osaka Samson over could be really really fun Then you've got Wong taken on Schmidlova winner that will take on the number 24 seed Merton in the second round then you got the 32nd seed Kalanina She'll take on either Fre or Bronzetti in the second round Then you got Wong taken on Beryl winner of that will take on the number three seed Coco Gough in that second round And I think Gough's got the easiest on paper easiest draw on paper I think that she really would like her chances in that for sure. There's not really any tough players in there for her I mean Samson over is not easy, but and Osaka of course isn't easy But I feel like Gough got a lot of chances in this section. Of course this section will take on that Jung section so possible quarterfinal between Gough Jung We could be getting a quarterfinal between Gough and and Azarenka Gough and Kazakina in the quarterfinals Or if you don't think golf's gonna make it Maybe you go with Jung versus Samson over as something a little different bottom part of the draw now We've got Pagula number five seed she'll take on either blink of it or push of it in the second round And that is such a tough second round no matter who it is a very tough start for Pagula Then you've got parry taken on Treveson winner That will take on the number 29 seed Fernandez in the second round then you got Garcia 20th seed She'll take on either Tomoba or Kennan in the second round then you got Snyder taken on Bogdan winner That will take on the number nine seed Sakuri in the second round and this section is stack Pagula Fernandez Garcia Sakuri all very very tough players, but also very competitive against each other, which could be fun You got you know obviously players to watch out for those four in particular, but also Pushkova You've also got Kennan in this section as well So this section here very very awkward for all players involved and then the next section to draw the bottom section The very bottom section you've got Svetalina the 16th seed She'll take on either Sinyakova or Minin in the second round Then you got qualifier taken on Sharenko winner that would take on the number 23 seed Navarro in the second round then you got the 30th seed Yastremska She'll take on either Raducanu or a qualifier in the second round and Yastremska has been good this year Raducanu Yastremska that'll be fireworks then the bottom part You've got Choky Redo taken on Stearns winner of that will take on the number two seed Savalanca in the second round very very interesting draw for Savalanca plays to watch out for Ah, you know Savalanca Yastremska Svetalina of course you got to keep it on Raducanu You know, she did play well here 12 months ago Surprisingly, so made the fourth round So definitely someone to watch out for on these slower courts because this section will take on that Pagula section so possibly caught a final between Savalanca Pagula We could be getting a Savalanca Sakri caught a final or even a Savalanca Fernandez caught a final if you want to go with something a little bit different and of course this section playing in the Semis against the golf section So big names Savalanca golf could be in the semis if you want to go something different Maybe Savalanca Zhang rematch of the Australian Open final Maybe you don't think Savalanca is gonna get there Maybe you go with golf versus Pagula with Pagula having the new coaches Maybe something happens. Let me know in the chat Let me know in the comments below if you're watching this later Who's gonna win this tournament? It feels like Rebecca has got the best draw or maybe even golf golf might be the one She has a pretty good road until the semis. Is that a good thing? Maybe, you know, she doesn't have to put maybe not have to play too many tough matches early But then again, maybe she has she should be playing tough matches So then when she plays Savalanca, if she plays Savalanca, it won't be out of nowhere You know, it's not that big of a jump to play some tough matches and then go to Savalanca But either way, I think that Shrion's extra is the worst and she's gonna have the toughest draw And the toughest road to making this title Indian whilst of the ladies and it's looking pretty interesting early on
